The Kid Who Couldn't Miss

8.0 79 mins Documentary   War   1983
ONF | NFB  
Director(s): Paul Cowan

Release Date: 03 Thu, Mar 1983

Paul Cowan's feature-length film combines fiction and reality to tell the story of how William Avery (Billy) Bishop became one of the leading fighter pilots of World War I. By no accounts a biography of Billy Bishop, the film uses a 'docu-drama' approach to show how one person goes from being a brash kid from Ontario to Canada's most decorated military figure.
